HOW DO I SET THE LOCK ON A SAMSONITE SUITCASE? 

A secure and personalized number combination is important to keep your contents ideally protected at all times. By default, all TSA combination locks are initially set to "0-0-0". Choose an easy-to-remember number combination, such as your house number or a birthday. First, open your suitcase by sliding the button to the side. This is usually labeled "Lock". There is a small dot on the lock that you can press with a pointed object. While holding the dot down, set your individual code and confirm it by releasing the button. 

ALWAYS ONE STEP AHEAD!

Samsonite focuses on quality. The brand suitcase manufacturer subjects every new product to extensive stress tests. Only when a piece of luggage passes all quality checks does a series get the green light for market launch.
The company continually reinvents its product lines. For example, in 2006, the market leader used the exclusive thermoplastic composite Curv® for the first time in the production of a new suitcase series.
Curv® is characterized by extremely high impact resistance. The material does not become brittle even at very low temperatures. The composite has a low density, which contributes to a low weight.  

A COMPANY HISTORY SHAPED BY INNOVATION

Behind the brand name lies the commitment to produce high-quality and durable luggage for travel and holidays. The term "Samsonite" refers to the biblical figure Samson, whose outstanding strength became a symbol of the brand's quality standards.
In its more than hundred-year history, Samsonite has repeatedly proven that extraordinary and revolutionary suitcases excite customers. Even James Bond carried an aluminium briefcase from the brand in the 1998 film "The World Is Not Enough".

FROM THE WOODEN CHEST TO THE TRAVEL SUITCASE

Founded in Denver in 1910, Samsonite is now one of the market leaders in the field of Hard-shell Suitcases. The company originally started with the production of heavy wooden chests. At that time, the company was still called Shwayder Trunk Manufacturing Company, named after the founder Jesse Shwayder. In 1916, the name "Samson" first appeared in connection with travel luggage.

SAMSONITE MAKES HISTORY

In 1962, the first ABS briefcase appeared, revolutionizing the world of businesspeople in the 60s. The starting signal for polypropylene suitcases was given in 1967. This was followed by the first luggage pieces on wheels. In 1997, Samsonite launched the first upright suitcase on the market. The birth of the spinner with 4 wheels began seven years later. Thanks to continuous expansion, the company quickly rose to become the global market leader in travel luggage. In the following years, Samsonite impressed with innovative and fresh ideas. Due to increasing demand, the urge to manufacture the perfect suitcase for every customer arose. The drive and motivation quickly paid off with satisfied customers.
Today, the manufacturer looks back on over 110 years of successful company history.
